Anaerobic Degradation of Bicyclic Monoterpenes in Castellaniella defragrans

Anaerobic Degradation of Bicyclic Monoterpenes in Castellaniella defragrans

The microbial degradation pathways of bicyclic monoterpenes contain unknown enzymes for carbon–carbon cleavages. Such enzymes may also be present in the betaproteobacterium Castellaniella defragrans, a model organism to study the anaerobic monoterpene degradation. In this study, a deletion mutant st...
